Tin Soldier- A song for PEACE

Written by a real flower child during her youth, MIA originally composed this song during the era of the Vietnam War. The lyrics were recently updated to fit the current zeitgeist of OUR times. The compilation of images selected hope to make a political statement about the current status of OUR humanity; or lack of it. Lead vocals were melodically provided by MIA's daughter Angel who was dressed in MIA's vintage clothing for the project. "What a FLASH BACK!!! In this uncertain world it's hard to imagine that so many of us still believe in each other and hope for a PEACEFUL PLANET. Perhaps by marrying the ancient wisdoms of the past with the best of contemporary knowledge we can somehow stabilize OUR future. Remember: Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, Today is a GIFT; that's why we call it... the Present. Soooo.... What are you going to do, my Baby Blue?"
